3d3d2ef9af gossipd: remove connectd functionality, enable connectd.
This patch guts gossipd of all peer-related functionality, and hands
all the peer-related requests to channeld instead.

gossipd now gets the final announcable addresses in its init msg, since
it doesn't handle socket binding any more.

lightningd now actually starts connectd, and activates it.  The init
messages for both gossipd and connectd still contain redundant fields
which need cleaning up.

There are shims to handle the fact that connectd's wire messages are
still (mostly) gossipd messages.

92d66a5451 gossipd: take connectd fd on initialization.
connectd has a dedicated fd to gossipd, so it can ask for a new gossip_fd
for a peer.

gossipd has a standalone routine to create a remote peer (this will
eventually be the only way gossipd creates a new peer).

For now lightningd creates a socketpair but doesn't run connectd, so
gossipd never sees any requests on this fd.

72c459dd6c gossipd: keep reaching struct only when we're actively connecting, and don't retry
1. Lifetime of 'struct reaching' now only while we're actively doing connect.
2. Always free after a single attempt: if it's an important peer, retry
   on a timer.
3. Have a single response message to master, rather than relying on
   peer_connected on success and other msgs on failure.
4. If we are actively connecting and we get another command for the same
   id, just increment the counter

The result is much simpler in the master daemon, and much nicer for
reconnection: if they say to connect they get an immediate response,
rather than waiting for 10 retries.  Even if it's an important peer,
it fires off another reconnect attempt, unless it's actively
connecting now.

This removes exponential backoff: that's restored in next patch.  It
also doesn't handle multiple addresses for a single peer.
